Deuteronomy 5:12-15
New King James Version
12 (A)‘Observe the Sabbath day, to [a]keep it holy, as the Lord your God commanded you. 13 (B)Six days you shall labor and do all your work, 14 but the seventh day is the (C)Sabbath of the Lord your God. In it you shall do no work: you, nor your son, nor your daughter, nor your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your ox, nor your donkey, nor any of your cattle, nor your stranger who is within your gates, that your male servant and your female servant may rest as well as you. 15 (D)And remember that you were a slave in the land of Egypt, and the Lord your God brought you out from there (E)by a mighty hand and by an outstretched arm; therefore the Lord your God commanded you to keep the Sabbath day.

Colossians 2:13-17
New King James Version
13 And you, being dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, He has made alive together with Him, having forgiven you all trespasses, 14 (A)having wiped out the [a]handwriting of requirements that was against us, which was contrary to us. And He has taken it out of the way, having nailed it to the cross. 15 (B)Having disarmed (C)principalities and powers, He made a public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.
16 So let no one (D)judge you in food or in drink, or regarding a [b]festival or a new moon or sabbaths, 17 (E)which are a shadow of things to come, but the [c]substance is of Christ.

New King James Version
Jesus Is Lord of the Sabbath(A)
23 (B)Now it happened that He went through the grainfields on the Sabbath; and as they went His disciples began (C)to pluck the heads of grain. 24 And the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why do they do what is (D)not lawful on the Sabbath?”
25 But He said to them, “Have you never read (E)what David did when he was in need and hungry, he and those with him: 26 how he went into the house of God in the days of Abiathar the high priest, and ate the showbread, (F)which is not lawful to eat except for the priests, and also gave some to those who were with him?”
27 And He said to them, “The Sabbath was made for man, and not man for the (G)Sabbath. 28 Therefore (H)the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.”

Healing on the Sabbath(A)
3 And (B)He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2 So they (C)watched Him closely, whether He would (D)heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might [a]accuse Him. 3 And He said to the man who had the withered hand, [b]“Step forward.” 4 Then He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they kept silent. 5 And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the (E)hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored [c]as whole as the other. 6 (F)Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with (G)the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.
